    ABA Health Law Section Presents the Cancer Legal Advocacy Virtual 5K Fun Run / Walk on Nov 17-27, 2023

    Enjoy the company of your friends and family while supporting cancer legal advocacy for those with cancer by participating in the Cancer Legal Advocacy Virtual 5K! Everyone is invited to come together to support families facing cancer and raise awareness about the legal ramifications associated with this life-threatening illness. 

    How it Works: Donate $25 to the ABA’s Cancer Legal Advocacy Interest Group. Then between November 17 and November 27, run or walk the 5K distance and record your achievement. You can do the full 5K (approximately 3.1 miles) at once or split it up over the event dates. Share your experiences and picture(s) throughout the week by posting them on your personal social media pages using the hashtag #ABACANCER5K.

    Your $25 donation to participate will help the ABA Health Law Section Cancer Legal Advocacy Interest Group* fund educational programs designed to help people with cancer, caregivers, others affected by this illness, lawyers, social workers, medical professionals, and more find the resources needed to address the complex legal issues associated with this debilitating disease.

    For further information about the Cancer Legal Advocacy Virtual 5K Run/Walk or the American Bar Association Health Law Section’s Cancer Legal Advocacy Interest Group, please contact Simeon Carson at [email protected].
